Oil


GFreeMO

Recommended Posts

I need to add some cooking oil to my rice "stuffing" I don't want to use olive oil b/c I don't want that taste in it. It calls for vegetable oil (which I think is soybean oil and I avoid that) I have canola in the house, would that work and is it 100% safe from a gluten standpoint? I don't want to make myself or the other celiac coming sick!

Also, can any of the cooking oils be substituted when a recipe calls for vegetable oil?

Thanks

Canola oil should be fine. I saw older posts which said they buy light olive oil in the super stores to bake with, maybe you'll like light Olive Oil, something to try...

Happy Thanksgiving from Popeye. :D;)

"Vegetable oil" is a generic term that covers any oil that is plant-based. Canola oil is gluten-free. Olive oil is gluten-free, but as you noted, adds a flavor--that may or may not be what you want. Light olive oil has less flavor.

You can use any liquid cooking oil in a recipe that calls for vegetable oil. Canola, sunflower, corn, soy, safflower, olive, peanut, or blends like Wesson all work. They are all gluten-free. I think olive is the healthiest so I use light olive oil when I want a neutral-tasting oil.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
